A little bit about me

I have 10 years of experience in being a Au pair, nanny as well as a baby sitter.

I am bubbly, easy going and a great additional set of hands to the families I work with.

I have experienced with children of all ages, with my last 5 years having been with children ages new born till 5 years old.

I am looking for my next family as the child I currently care for is starting school in the fall.

"Thando was our daughter's nanny from when our baby was 4 months to 16 months old. My husband and I are first-time parents and our families live far away, but Thando made our lives so much easier with her extensive background and knowledge in infant and toddler-care. Thando took care of all of our baby's needs, did all the daily baby-related chores, helped our daughter thrive, and kept our minds at ease as we returned to work--we couldn't have asked for a better experience. What's more is she genuinely loves babies and enjoys spending time with them, and her sense of humor was always a welcome pick-me up for 2 tired parents! Happy to chat in more detail with prospective employers over the phone."

"Thando was a dedicated nanny and a very careful driver. She took care of my twins (boy/girl)for just over 2 years. They were 5 when she started working with us. She was able to connect with both of them very easily and still talks to them to this day. They are 9 now! She is responsible, easy to live with, and very respectful. She did not need much direction from me, and was always able to entertain the children. She will be an amazing addition to any family lucky enough to have her. I highly recommend her without any reservation."
